And still 18 fewer woo championships... For that matter, he has fewer championships than a guy 20+ yrs younger

That would depend on which "one"of Steve's ages you are using at the time!

concerning all of steves championships, how many came in the day when the competition was not all that great? fewer car counts = more wins for the top echelon drivers

i am curious as to the stats that someone may have say, pre 1990 or so.

anyone have them?


Ascot was the greatest of all time..

West Capital wasn't half bad either..

Life is good...

Congrats to Sammy! I am pretty sure both him and Steve have some wins left in them. He may have less WoO titles and less wins than Steve, but Sammy still has far more of both than your cajun ever will! It would have been intersesting if Sammy had have chased more WoO championships.

Some year in the late 80's I think Doty finished 2nd 20+ times. How is my memory Brad ?

This is standard operation for Swindell fans to feel good about themselves, typical of Swindell fans. Beat Kinser down to prop up Sammy, WEAK!!! Oh by the way, How many titles, wins and Knoxville Nationals does Steve have since 1990, its more than Sammy! So you can go pound sand!

How many of Michael Jordan's career points came against the L.A. Clippers? How many of Joe Montana's career touchdown's came against the New Orleans Saints? Does it really matter? The reason the competition was so inferior was because there was a number 11 car kicking their asses every night! He won 12 Knoxville Nationals. I don't think the competition ever wavered there. No excuses need to be given for any win he has ever had. Anyone who doesn't think he is the greatest ever (regardless of how he is sputtering in the twilight of his career) is a complete moron.

No question Kinser is all time King, but no question Sammy has been faster last few years

SK won most of his races at a time when there were only 10 or less touring outlaws. He dominated over the the local heroes.

Hey, Kinser beat whoever was there. What else could you compare him to?

Steve is still racing and already they want to rewrite history. We were always wanting someone else to win but we are smart enough to know what we were witnessing. Sammy won most of his races at a time when there were only 10 or less touring outlaws. Sammy dominated over the local heroes. And on top of that , Sammy takes them out or whines that there are even there.

how many times do you numbskulls need to be reminded that for over 20 years the woo toured with 10-12 teams. that was the way it was designed.

for years the woo only had awards for the top 10 in points.



to indy and beyond!!
